Cody, You're Toast

Halloween is one of the High Holy Days in the Funkiverse, and this year is no exception. Cody’s idea of a “joke” is to dress up as one thing and then tell everybody he’s supposed to be something else? I assume that’s Owen (since Cody has no other friends); when did he get so skinny? He’s got a lot of nerve to insult Cody’s getup. When did Spiderman ever wear one of those goofy chullo hats?

Anyway, the kids in Westview should be grateful that their school district allows them to wear costumes to school. A school district here in New Jersey made news last week when they prohibited “Halloween Dress-up Day”.

Thankfully, Snarking is Still Free

I have a feeling that this week we’ll get the term “school levy” shoved down our collective throats. Let’s see…the “coming school levy”…”the looming school levy”…that seems about right.

Don’t forget the “upcoming school levy”, Sarge!

Batiuk should save himself some time and aggravation by creating a new character. Call him “Befuddled and/or Put-Upon Westview Resident”, and have him serve as the foil for all doorbell gags involving “canvassing”, band candy and band turkey sales. Today’s generic neighbor is merely a moustache and chin away from Maddie’s customer from last month.
